Young learners of English will enjoy LearnEnglish Kids: Phonics Stories, a phonics-based, interactive storybook app that features audio narration and fun games. The story follows super space spies Sam and Pam as they arrive on Earth and learn how to speak and spell English words.

The app is designed for the iPad.

Phonics-based story app

Get a jump start on reading and spelling! The eight stories in the app are based on the UK phonics programme Letters and Sounds. Each story focuses on a different set of sounds which makes it easier for learners to notice and make connections between sound and spelling.

Interactive games make reading even more fun

Young learners read along with the audio narration, lift flaps to reveal events in the story and play in-app games to test reading comprehension.

Help for Parents

The app includes a Parents' Guide that explains what phonics is. It gives parents tips on how to use the LearnEnglish Kids: Phonics Stories app with their children to encourage learning, reading and speaking English.

Dear Justine,
You can find the phonics stories on the Speak and Spell section of the website.http://learnenglishkids.britishcouncil.org/en/speak-and-spell
There are some additional games on the app, but the content of the stories is exactly the same.
I hope that the stories will be useful for your classes.
